Presumably people who do this kind of thing with vintage machinery must have some sort of insurance?

Reminds me of that scene in The Incredibles...

"plumber ... good lead"

🤣😂😅

I wonder how that compares to "The Good (sic) Old Days" of just copying the class "swot's" homework?

Or just leaving it to the last minute?

Were boys always more likely to do that than girls?

But does mean I can now do the Eric Morecambe things with jiggling them & putting them upside-down, etc.

Also the Captain Mainwaring thing of having them askew after a pratfall.

Have had to wear "reading" glasses for about 8 years now.
Still annoying having to keep putting them on & off.

Full stack!

A tall, thin scaffold tower against a red brick wall. The tower reaches almost to the eaves of the two-storey building. There is clear blue sky in the background.

#Microcontroller #firmware tends to be fairly low-level stuff.

Today, for a change, I have been working on a high-level platform

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

Can you say when it's going to air?

Would be more interesting that a lot of the stuff on there, tbh ...

You too, eh?

Two electronic circuit boards on a piece of perforated matrix prototyping board. The upper circuit board is white, has Arduino-style connectors, and is in a "portrait" orientation. The lower board is red, in "landscape". The matrix board is also white.

For the avoidance of doubt, I'm not a game developer myself.
I'm an #EmbeddedSystems developer - making #firmware for #microcontrollers.

#IoT #electronics and all that

When companies send you a letter, they really should put some sort of reference number in it that you can simply dial into their AVR system and it will connect you direct to someone with all the appropriate information.

How Hard Can It Be?

Ours used to keep checking the fireplace for a mouse that went and hid there ages ago!

Local chippy is using some new-fangled synthetic coating on its fish.

I can't believe its not batter!

Screenshot of Google search for "owls near me". First hit is the Owls Near Me website. Then there's the "AI Overview": You can find owls near Basingstoke at wildlife parks like the New Forest Wildlife Park and Hawk Conservancy Trust. To see them in the wild, look for rough grassland areas at dawn or dusk, especially on still evenings, where barn owls hunt for voles, notes The Wildlife Trusts. Other nearby options include Liberty's Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre and Birdworld.

Well, so there is!

(I think the AI is being a bit optimistic calling Ringwood "near")
